I've got two uppers in. Both are factory colts, both has KAC ras rails, and both are in 95%+ condition.

The first is a a2 colt 727 14.5 socom HB upper. it appears to be a factory upper (shows no signs of the pins being removed) It's marked C MB on the upper, L6 I 2 on the FSB, and C MP 5.56 nato 1/7 on the barrel. I have not removed the KAC rails to view the date code. Has a C FA colt BCG.

The other is a factory colt 9mm upper, It's a 10.3 or 10.5, not to sure about that.The upper is a A1 style, has C A marked on the upper, c99 (r1) 2 marked on the FSB and C MP CB marked on the barrel on the top with 9mm on the side. The bolt is ramped and comes with 2 off brand mags and a colt drop in mag adaptor.

Any clue what these would go for? I'm thinking about pricing the 727 upper for $1500 and the 9mm setup for $1300

You really think they will go for that much?

I did some googling around about the 727 and I saw some old ads for the same upper (I think) for half of that price.

The 727 is like new and has the heavy socom barrel. Socom barrels, IF you can find one is $700+ stripped. Never mind that this is a complete early m4 socom upper with factory colt bolt and a new set of ras rails.

I may be a bit high on the 9mm upper but this is a drop in setup with new RAS rails. When factory 6920 uppers are going near $1000 I feel I can get it.

I'll list them later, best to start high and come down. If it was a 14.5 flat top I'd keep it in a second. Not to crazy about the heavy barrel or the a2 upper. It'd be great for somebody who wants to build a correct early m4 retro clone.

Yeah, they're definitely coming back down and getting easier to find. But if they were normal, I wouldn't have gotten better than full price for mine. The thing sells for $1099 at Walmart, which is $1175 after tax. Under normal conditions, you wouldn't get that full price for it anyway on any board or on armslist. And I made $150 on more than that on mine.

People will continue to pay a premium on them for a few more weeks I think.
